Around 11 inches tall in Freedom Units for individual robot mode and about 14 inches long in robot mode. I think I'm out. I just don't have the space for gigantic combiners and the dino mode really rubs me the wrong way. Like they're trying too hard to make him all angular and sharp but have the...

The biggest deco loss is the cassette detailing, really. The feet look silver. Not sure if that's just overzealous airbrushing but hopefully it's the same color as his other body parts. I don't have a strong preference for cartoon flat gray vs toy silver but I'd at least like consistency.

I went with this Optimus head because while Achai’s head looks good, this is comparable in aesthetics and around the same price for the entire set even if I don't used the arm. Plus, this head has added articulation. After taking photos, I placed the arm in a ziplock bag in my parts box while...

soundwave looks better overall but the limbs being slimmer just brings more attention to the bulky chest. Kind of inevitable but still. I just wish they’d be more consistent with the surface detailing. Between the reused Generations molds, the Studio Series molds until this year and now the new...

I bought some sculpting clay from an art store intending to fix retail Lio Convoy’s face if it ever went on sale but he never did. Just the black repaint

I still need a Lio Convoy. I preordered the Anniversary release but the anime lion's definitely gonna look weird next to the Generations beasts. Big Convoy looks great but I'm not a fan of the white on the tusks and face. Weathering should help the tusks but hopefully the head's easy to...

Considering this set already has height boosters and filler parts, I'm surprised they didn't add articulated hands to complete the DNA trifecta. That said, I'm pretty sure they're only the size they are to fit inside the arms for transformation.

I think the bigger shoulders are okay without the flame pieces on them. Might just be years of Warhammer and Gears of War conditioning speaking though.

DNA has a new Fallen kit coming up. Takes from the Flame Toys version with the oversized shoulderpads and chainsword. Comes with new bigger flame effects, a new spearhead, randomly clear purple filler parts and feet because of course DNA's gonna slip in height boosters somewhere. The sword is...

Macross has gone too far

During the climactic season finale, Megatron gets banned for aimbotting on-stream and creates Galvatron as his alt account after his Youtube apology video fails to get him unbanned.

Kinda like the bigger shoulders and the chainsaw sword. New spearhead and flame effects are decent. Not sure if I want the platform shoes and hilariously out of place gap fillers. New vehicle mode's not terrible. Since they're selling the sword separately, I might just buy that.

I never hated the TF4 onwards designs because they didn't seem able to transform. I hated them because they are ugly as hell.

These 3D printed head pop up every once in a while with varying levels of appropriateness. THis is supposed to be Skybound Megatron I guess but it looks like a 3D version of that meme.

You can use hot glue as a semi-permanent way to affix the shin covers. You’ll need to be a little extra careful when applying it so that it isn’t visible but it comes off with enough force and the residue can be scraped off.

I dunno, yeah that’s true of the TV ending and the end of Evangelion ending but Rebuild3.0+1.0 or whatever the hell 4 was titled wasn’t all that satisfying either. It was better than the surprise Tang ending (but what isn’t?) and definitely a much more optimistic ending that I think appeals to...

I don’t think it’s so much that the G1 constructicon purple is particularly blue, just that the newer ones are comparatively much redder. Also purple is notoriously difficult to photograph

Never actually watched it either. I just half-remember that theory and wasn't sure if it was original or fan-originated.

I know that Megatron's supposed to be Skybound but it ends up looking like the anime dude hand on shoulder meme.

Was that the one about excess morphing grid energy or am I thinking about some fan-theory?
